Abstract

<p><em>Xylella fastidiosa </em>is an economically important bacterial plant pathogen. With insights gained from 72 genomes, this study investigated differences among the three main subspecies, which have allopatric origins: <em>X. fastidiosa</em> subsp. <em>fastidiosa</em>, <em>multiplex</em>, and <em>pauca</em>. The origin of recombinogenic<em> X. fastidiosa</em> subsp. <em>morus </em>and <em>sandyi </em>was also assessed. The evolutionary rate of the 622 genes of the species…
